Why not Las Vegas and all those other places?
Writing by Rich on March 4, 2007
My wife asked me the other day why Las Vegas wasn’t on the short list of candidates as the best place to live. To be honest, I didn’t have a good answer. I guess I just don’t like the place — too big, too water consumptive, too many retirees. As Marlee Macleod said, “why did you have to end up in Las Vegas?”
Well, maybe we will end up in Las Vegas. Perhaps it will be Las Vegas, New Mexico though!
There really are some other towns we might look at, so I’ll kick out another list that I might get around to writing about. We could change our minds as we learn more, and it may be a good exercise just to compare them to cities and towns on the main list. They’ve been excluded from the short list for various reasons. In some cases, we just don’t know enough about them yet, and my research time is limited. For others, there are more specific reasons. Take Flagstaff for example. It’s too cold, and if we’re going to be in that kind of climate, we’d rather be close to more ski resorts. Plus, for being so close to our beloved Southern Utah, it sure is hard to get there. Anyway, without further delay, here’s the list of maybes:
Arizona
- Flagstaff
- Payson
- Sedona
- Sierra Vista
Nevada
- Las Vegas
- Reno
New Mexico
- Farmington
- Las Vegas
- Taos
Utah
- Cedar City
- Moab
- St. George
